About this property

Positioned just outside Harper with convenient access to Hwy 290 and I-10, this 174.8± acre Gillespie County ranch offers a rare combination of production capability, accessibility, and long-term flexibility. The property features gently rolling native pasture with scattered hardwoods and open grazing areas well suited for livestock operations. Well-maintained fencing and working pens support active ranch use, while the terrain provides both functional grazing land and expansive Hill Country views. All improvements are strategically located directly off a paved county road, allowing the majority of the acreage to remain uninterrupted and highly usable. The ranch includes a traditional brick single-family home offering a 3-bedroom, 2-bath configuration with approximately 2,145± square feet of living space. Additional improvements include a detached garage/shop, a 1,650± sq ft barn with workshop, a smoke room and dedicated meat processing room, along with livestock pens and working facilities designed for efficient ranch operations. The infrastructure supports cattle, goats, or diversified agricultural use, and the current ag exemption helps keep annual carrying costs low. Located within easy reach of Fredericksburg, Kerrville, and I-10, this ranch offers excellent regional accessibility while maintaining the privacy and quiet setting characteristic of western Gillespie County.
